Happy Friday! We made it through the week! I hope you have some fun planned for the weekend! There's nothing on my list to do. If the weather is fine I think I'll talk Mr. J. into a trip to the zoo - if it's cold and rainy I'm staying put!
Friday is my day to post for Tupelo Designs, LLC. This is my favorite place to shop. They carry lots of my favorite brands and shipping is free every day - no coupon code required. I like that I can mix my basket with different brands - no minimum order to meet for free shipping, and I even get reward points. These are points that add up and can be turned into dollars off my next purchase.
Today I'm playing with some WPlus9 I got with my last order. Whenever I get a new set I always cut and stamp a bunch. Usually about 10 of each. I can stamp them in different colors and play around with lining up the stamp and die. Even though this set has window dies that are perfect for stamping and then cutting, I usually do the opposite.. cut the dies and then stamp on them.
I can play around with different arrangements - deciding what to put where before I commit to stamping.
For this one the only elements that will be applied as cut dies are the Merry label and three large poinsettia flowers. I stamped all the other images on the panel that will cover the card base.
Here's a close up so you can see the flowers adhered after I stamped the base panel.
Here's the finished card...
My order came by Federal Express. It was quadruple wrapped! First layer was the Federal Express bag, then another waterproof bag, the next layer was a nice printed bag, and inside that my package was gift wrapped like this..
My packing list is easy to see, and tucked in there was a little gift for me! Some pretty buttons and a card with the original Tupelo - the Greyhound the store is named for.
Some cute Lavinia Stamps Fairy Chain Large, and Tree Goddess "Luna".
I've been wanting this Altenew Oriental Orchid set forever!
Can you tell I'm hooked on Altenew lately? This is the Botanical Garden stamp set and Thank You Die.
And finally .. I have the matching dies for my Vintage Flowers stamp set and some word dies too for Christmas!
I'd love to hear what you bought!

Hi Jeanne,
It's been way too long since I've just hung out at your blog for awhile.
It's a perfectly sunny day here but your colorful cards and happy bright images are shining too!
Making me smile as always, but I marvel at your talent and the way your joy in this craft comes through with each project.

I also used the Be Merry set this week - love your card, and really appreciate seeing your process. I'm going to try it!
Beautiful! I love all that color and cheerfulness!
Wow...what a fantastic card! And good for you to always stamp and cut, need to give that a try. Your card is so beautiful, love all those bright and vivid colors.
